Ours was a short 3 day break. The cabin was very comfortable, we enjoyed a very proffessional massage in the comfort of the cabin. The other delight was the regular visits of the dog - seemed like he was checking up on our comfort with out being invasive. We were also so pleased when the owners found our missing jigsaw... More

The cottages are gorgeous & cosy. The wildlife and sounds are amazing. We really loved it here. Montville & Maleny are gorgeous, quaint towns with amazing views. All the extra touches of roses and chocolates and a cottage breakfast made it an amazing retreat. More

We desperately needed a break and chose The Narrows to find the place was well presented, with added touches of roses, slip on scuffs, and lovely natural bath products. We came for peace and quiet, plus privacy and that is what we got. Having a functional kitchen we ate in each night, but ventured out during the day for lunch... More

We will be back & will refer to many friends as a remarkable getaway experience - for us it was so rare to find the peace we have found at Narrows so close to home. Mark & Joanne have thought of everything, can't recommend highly enough. More

I wanted to take my husband away for our anniversary to a romantic getaway. I did lots of research on the internet and found The Narrows Escape. Sounded like the perfect place to go! We were not disappointed. We were escorted to our cottage and received an ample breakfast hamper on arrival. We had freshly baked crossaints delivered to our... More

If you are looking to escape for a few nights Narrows is an excellent choice. Very peacful and relaxing. We stayed in Rosella, it was quite cute and cosy but we did have a fruit fly infestation which wasn't particularly pleasant. None the less a lovely get away. More

Thanks for your lovely review Simone_and_Mark, we are glad you enjoyed your stay in Rosella. Just to clarify that the "fruit fly" infestation was actually flying ants, which are truly an amazing phenomenon at certain times of the year. Apparently the weather conditions have to be just right...such as heavy rains that you experienced during your stay. This swarming is... More

My partner and I stayed 3 nights from 15-18 July 2011. We were given the Dove cottage which we absolutely loved. It was the last cottage at the end so we felt we had the most secluded cottage. The cottages are heavenly. When you arrive, the log fire is burning, romantic music is playing in the background and a rose... More

It was fabulous - even though the power went out briefly, the candles/fireplace and all the cottage amenities made it as though nothing was wrong! More
